About this map

Hole In The Rock Rd cuts across this high desert landscape, tracing a path through the southern reaches of Garfield County near the border of Kane County. The terrain is defined by a series of expansive benches and flats, most notably Sunset Flat and Buckaroo Flat, separated by deep drainage systems. Twentymile Wash and the winding Twentyfive-Mile Wash provide the primary hydrological structure for the area, carving through the earth toward the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area visible in the northeast corner.

Local landmarks such as White Point and the towering Fiftymile Mountain provide significant relief against the lower basins like Little Valley. This survey captures the region's character as a place of transit and seasonal grazing, evidenced by named features like Rat Seep Hollow and Early Weed Bench. The placement of Allen Dump and Scorpion further identifies specific points of interest for those studying the land use and navigation of this arid plateau.
